Objective: The study aimed to examine the change in the quality of life levels of patients followed at the BAHAR Center with a diagnosis of Alcohol or Substance Use Disorder and to investigate the factors effective in this change.
Method: Patients followed up at Erenköy BAHAR Center with a diagnosis of Alcohol/Substance Use Disorder between January 2022 and June 2023 were consecutively included in the study. The Sociodemographic Data Form and the Quality of Life Scale Short Form (WHOQOL-BREF) were administered to the patients who were followed up at the rehabilitation center as a pre-test at the first interview and as a post-test at the 6th month of treatment.
Results: 82% of the participants were men, 18% were women, 44% were high school graduates, 38% were single, 48% were unemployed, and 76% were living with their families. Physical Quality of Life Sub-Dimension, Psychological Sub-Dimension, Social Sub-Dimension, Environment Sub-Dimension and Total "Post-Test" score averages of the WHOQOL-BREF Scale were all found to be significantly different and greater than the "Pre-Test" score averages.
Conclusion: This study can play a role as a guide in clinical intervention strategies in terms of including more interventions aimed at improving the quality of life when structuring the programs of patients in the rehabilitation process..

Öz

Amaç: Bu çalışmada Alkol veya Madde Kullanım Bozukluğu tanılarıyla BAHAR Merkezinden takip edilen hastaların yaşam kalitesi düzeylerinin değişiminin incelenmesi ve bu değişimde etkili faktörlerin araştırılması amaçlanmıştır.
Yöntem: Ocak 2022- Haziran 2023 tarihleri arasında Alkol/Madde Kullanım Bozukluğu tanısıyla Erenköy BAHAR Merkezi’nde takipli hastalar ardışık olarak çalışmaya dahil edilmiştir. Rehabilitasyon merkezinde takibine başlanan hastalara Sosyodemografik Veri Formu ile birlikte Yaşam Kalitesi Ölçeği Kısa Formu (WHOQOL-BREF) ilk görüşmede ön- test olarak ve tedavisinin 6. ayında son-test olarak uygulanmıştır.
Bulgular: Katılımcıların %82’si erkek, %18’i kadın, %44 oranında lise mezunu, %38’i bekar, %48’i çalışmıyor ve %76’sı ailesiyle yaşıyordu. WHOQOL-BREF Ölçeğinin Fiziksel Yaşam Kalitesi Alt Boyutu, Psikolojik Alt Boyutu, Sosyal Alt Boyutu Çevre Alt Boyutu ve Toplam “Son-Test” puan ortalamaların tümü “Ön-Test” puan ortalamalarından anlamlı şekilde farklı ve büyük saptandı.
Sonuç: Rehabilitasyon sürecindeki hastaların programlarının yapılandırılması sırasında, yaşam kalitesini artırmaya yönelik müdahalelere daha çok yer verilmesi açısından klinik müdahale stratejilerinde de yol gösterici olabilir.
